Opening yourself up to opportunities to work from home can lead to great benefits for your bottom line (and for opening yourself up to even more work).
Sites such as elance.com and sologig.com provide opportunities for those who seek side projects or to work remotely.
Recently, I have improved my website by listing some of the projects I have worked on remotely, and this has opened up my world to new opportunities nationally. By setting up your business model to accept work no matter where it may take place, you open yourself up to new business and possibly long-term relationships.
To see an example of how I have leveraged my experiences with Quickbooks to open up my business to a national audience, visit my Quickbooks page at

While it may not be visually striking, it has successfully landed me new projects of late in Seattle, Hawaii, and around the capital region of New York state.
